Try the following:
$ alsamixer -c0
then
$ pavucontrol
after adjusting those to your preference save your settings with
$ su -c '/sbin/alsactl store'
put in your password and settings should be saved for next reboot, ***unless*** an update(s) breaks your configuration and let us hope that those things don't happen :)

Hi all Fedora users,
I have just joined this list. I am running the latest Fedora but I can't get
my 3C900Combo networking card to work. I can see that the card is installed
but no IP-address is asigned to it and I can't set it. So I think that there
is a bug in that driver. Any other user out there who have a solution for
this?
Best regards and thanks,
Christian

Hi all
I know that is not a specific question about Fedora, but I can't find answer on the kernel mailing list.
Is somebody having server with integrated ATI RAGE XL video card? Is it possible to patch the kernel to support this video card? If I add VGA=791 in my grub.conf, I will have a resolution of 1024x768 which is good, but the display is very slow (especially when the screen is scrolling). If I use I this: "video=aty128fb:1024x768@70" it will not work. I'm using kernel 2.4.22 but I will try 2.6.0-test11 today.
If somebody has a patch, a link or anything else that can help me, it will be appreciated.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,

I have two similar PC (old Pentium but workin fine)
In Pc no.1 I upgraded from RH8 to Fedora and it went fine: Soundblaster
is working fine
In Pc no.2 I made a fresh installation but in redhat-sound-config Fedora
doesn't see any card, that was working on Redhat 9 after soundconfig...
Where is the trick?? I assume that my Sounblaster is an old 16...but
fine on a router/firewall.
Tnx

I've been using a floppy boot disk as reserve if my HD boot fails, But
it appears floppy support as now been removed. Why? Then how can I
create an emergency media that is flexible enough to be updated as required?

My work Fedora 17 64bit box gangs without reason, and I can't track
down issue causing it! When I reboot into Windows 7 32bit it works for
days without any hangs.
This is a company PC so IT installed Windows 7, but I don't use it,
that is why I installed Fedora and use it as my primary desktop.
I'm not some guru sysadmin, but I'm not a newbie, as I have been using
Linux over 10 years as my primary desktop and have few private servers
that I maintain, I have troubleshooted and fixed numerous issues with
mine and friends machines.
My desktop works perfectly for hours, sometime for days, but after
some time (usually 1-2 days) it just freezes. It doesn't matter how
many free memory I have, which apps I'm runnig or which desktop I'm
using. I tried leaving just desktop running with no apps, still
freezes, changed desktops, kde - hangs, gnome 3 - hangs, mate - gangs,
tried leaving multiple apps doing something, still hangs. I ran memory
test utils, memory is working ok. These gangs are driving me nuts!
Is anybody having unexplained hangs with Fedora 16 and 17 64bit? Could
it be some 64bit issue because Windows is 32bit and it works?
How can I troubleshoot what is causing hangs of my machine?
Thanks.

Preupgrade used to be quite limited in capability, and restricted to a single
version upgrade at a time. I have some systems I would rather not upgrade by
hand if possible, but they need to go from fc13 to fc17, and I'm sure doing it
insteps would take more effort on my part than a single step and some fixup. I
noted that preupgrade offers to try to go to to fc17 in a single step, but it's
not obvious if it's kidding me or itself.
Downtime should be minimized, so it's worth at least considering. Any experience?

I have an original sendmail.pem that was generated with /etc/pki/tls/certs/make-dummy-cert (which is similar to /etc/pki/tls/certs/Makefile), but it's now expired.
I tried to use the script below to extract the key, subject, and serial #, and generate a new cert based on the same, but for whatever reason Thunderbird balks at it with:
Oct 27 16:59:26 mail sendmail[6025]: STARTTLS=server, error: accept failed=0, SSL_error=1, errno=0, retry=-1, relay=macbook.redfish-solutions.com [192.168.1.17]
Oct 27 16:59:26 mail sendmail[6025]: STARTTLS=server: 6025:error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad certificate:s3_pkt.c:1195:SSL alert number 42
Oct 27 16:59:26 mail sendmail[6025]: q9RMxQX8006025: macbook.redfish-solutions.com [192.168.1.17] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MSA
What am I missing? And should that makefile have a:
%.repem: %.pem
dummy target that updates a cert? Or do we need a update-dummy-cert script additionally?
Here's the script that I used to update the cert.
Thanks,
-Philip
